A Visit To Se ee A Foreign , Ws palette italia iia, | gieeeediaeemmaemnaiena | { : Country For several weeks before Midlothian’s annual Language Week, one could not pass through the upstairs hall after school without hearing the voices of students involved in frantic activity. These students were making plans for both the foreign exchange student assembly and the taster’s supper. This year Language Week took place over a period of two weeks instead of the usual week. The Language Department was forced to change the date for the taster’s supper because of the heavy accumulation of snow which had caused the schools to close for a total of ten days. This year’s foreign exchange student assembly took place on March 1. Two students from Midlo were present at each assembly to question the foreign exchange students. The panel con- sisted of seven students from Germany, Sweden, Canada, Argentina, New Zealand, Chile, and Co- lumbia. They were asked such questions as, “What do you do during free time?” and “What do you plan to study in college?” The sixth annual Midlothian Taster’s Supper was on March 10th. The supper gave students the chance to try salads, vegetables, main dishes, and desserts from many countries. This year life- sized drawings of children from all parts of the world were used to decorate the cafeteria where the supper was held. Usually, the money from the taster’s supper goes to aid a student at Midlo who is planning to participate in the foreign exchange program dur- ing the summer. However, this year the net profit from the taster’s supper increased, so the Lan- guage Department was able to present two scholarships instead of the usual one. Pam Eu- bank and Lisa Selph were the happy recipients of these scholarships. All the students who at- tended agreed that both the taster’s supper and the assembly had provided for them an opportu- nity to take a closer look at countries outside the United States. The arranging of the food marks the beginning of the night’s activities. 20 Academics
